Good looking rig, now will she shoot??

After admiring a friends Sako Forrester in 243 I managed to pick one up for $345, with a little cosmetic blemmish here and there. Nothign that would ever bother me. Found an almost new stock for it for $35, and after getting it settled in the new wood picked up a box of cheap Win 100gr loads. Took three shots to bore sight it at 50 then stretched it out to 100 for this three shot group,


Then a month or so ago, I worked up this with Hybrind 100V, and some 100gr Nosler Solid Bases.


I would at least suggest you add Hybrid to your list of powders. It shoots very well, meters great, and gives good velocities with most bullets.

I have only shot it just to get it on paper, Didnt get out yet with sandbags to fine tune it . I will be loading 75gr HPs . I will check into your powder recommendation. Those are some nice groups you have. I have always loved the 6mm/243, Just the ticket for here in Pa.

i have good luck in the .243 with varget and h4350....not sure with the 6mm...i think RL19 might be a good place to look. a guy mentioned Benchmark to me for the 75 grain bullets in 6mm...
